Soil and Water Conservation Scientist

Soil and Water Conservation Scientist (AI Training)
About The Role
We're looking for experienced soil and water conservation scientists to help evaluate and improve AI systems trained on sustainable land and water management practices. Your scientific expertise will directly shape how AI understands, reasons about, and communicates critical environmental topics — from erosion control to watershed management.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role where your real-world knowledge makes a measurable difference in the quality of AI used by researchers, planners, and conservationists worldwide.
Organization: Alignerr (Powered by Labelbox)
Type: Hourly / Task-based Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Review and evaluate AI-generated soil and water conservation scenarios for scientific accuracy and practical validity
Assess content related to erosion control, watershed management, soil health, and conservation planning
Identify flawed assumptions, oversimplifications, or impractical recommendations in AI outputs
Provide clear, structured feedback to improve scientific rigor, clarity, and real-world applicability
Work independently and asynchronously on your own schedule to meet project deadlines
Who You Are
3+ years of hands-on experience in soil science, hydrology, conservation planning, or a closely related field
Strong working knowledge of soil processes, water systems, and land conservation techniques
Able to critically evaluate applied environmental science reasoning and spot errors others might miss
Comfortable reviewing and annotating technical written content with precision and consistency
Self-motivated and reliable when working independently in a remote, async environment
Nice to Have
Graduate degree in Soil Science, Hydrology, Environmental Science, or a related discipline
Experience with field assessments, GIS tools, or conservation planning software
Familiarity with AI systems, content evaluation workflows, or data annotation platforms
